🧩 Conditional Tasks
You can set up tasks so they only show up when certain answers are given. For example:
- Show "Upload Marriage Certificate" only if the client said "Yes" to "Are you married?"
- Show extra questions based on the type of case
- Skip tasks that don't apply — automatically!
Conditional logic gets set up when you add tasks to forms. See Forms for more details.
